Topic: UI icons (Read 6294 times)

I'm looking to edit the icons on the UI since many of them are duplicates and hard to read at a glance. Is there a tool that I can use to extract/imbed the icons in a standard image format? If not how would I go about doing this?

--Edit--

With the help of Rfvgyhn I've been able to insert some custom icons into the game. Many of the duplicate icons could not be replaced but if you still want to use these icons do the following:

I've attached an image that shows the original icons compared to the custom ones. There's a chance that they are hard to read or don't look right in game but I can't tell for sure until I can figure out how to replace them.

The images are packaged in Gnomoria's skin file. You'll need to unpack the skin, modify the image and then repack it. The file you are looking for in particular is called Icon.Actions.

Thanks. That seems to be exactly what I needed but I ran into a problem. I successfully unpacked the Default.skin file and modified the image but when I try to repack everything the utility seems to leave out ALL images. It even does this on an freshly unpacked folder which I didn't modify at all.

Regardless of that, I noticed that some commands (grove, underground farm, clean floor) do not have separate icons and most likely use other icons as placeholders. I was sort of afraid of that and was hoping that at least the icon mapping information was stored in the Default.skin file somewhere but I'm going to guess it's hard coded.

So anyone still playing these game?I feel realy frustrated with icon menue and the fact it's white and gray... can anyone make it color, or somwhat recogniseble insted of that blind icons you click only by knowing what position somthing is on.
